Explain nietzsches argument concerning the truth of truth


Explain Nietzsche's argument concerning the 'truth' of truth as appears in the following excerpt from our assigned Nietzsche text: "For so far we have heard only of the duty which society imposes in order to exist: to be truthful means to employ the usual metaphors. Thus, to express it morally, this is the duty to lie according to a fixed convention, to lie with the herd and in a manner binding upon everyone. Now man of course forgets that this is the way things stand for him. Thus he lies in the manner indicated, unconsciously and in accordance with habits which are centuries' old; and precisely by means of this unconsciousness and forgetfulness he arrives at his sense of truth." Does this seem right to you? State why or why not.
